EatRightTV, the YouTube channel of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, recently featured Andrew Doherty, a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed) educator and a registered dietitian-nutritionist with University of Minnesota Extension.

"I find it important to work with low-income individuals because those are the people most at risk for nutrition deficiencies and health-related conditions," says Doherty in the video. "Being able to work hands-on with those who have the most nutritional needs is very fulfilling to me."

Governor Mark Dayton has proclaimed January as SNAP-Ed Month. Visit the SNAP-Ed webpage to learn more about the program.
